Synergy // Moog Subharmonicon and DFAM, Modular Synthesizer
video upload by Eisenia foetida
"Moog Subharmonicon and DFAM are on main voice and percussion, respectively. Subharmonicon is being processed by Mutable Instruments Clouds and DFAM by Endorphin.es Milky Way."
As a Rorschach I'm seeing amoeba crabs.

Korg Nautilus – STR-1 plucked string sound engine
video upload by Korg UK
"Based on Korg’s history of physical modelling, the STR-1 sound engine within Nautilus uses struck and plucked string modelling to produce sounds that respond to a player’s touch in a way simply not possible with traditional PCM sound generation.
This sound engine shines at producing sounds whose tone responds to your touch in ways that are difficult for a PCM sound engine to reproduce: acoustic guitar, electric guitar, harpsichord, clavinet, harp, bell, as well as ethnic instruments. It also goes much further, allowing you to synthesize and modify sounds that do not exist in reality. This is a sound engine of the future, one that allows the synthesizer programmer to construct truly new sounds."
the mighty M.F. / 130 patches for Arturia Microfreak (vid 2)
video upload by Jexus (sounds-for-synths.com)
"My thoughts on the synth & how to buy: https://sounds-for-synths.com/arturia...
No talking demo. All patches custom-made by Jexus. As you all know the Microfreak is monoaural and has no onboard FX. It sounds slightly different and more “stereo” in my demo because some of the sounds have been EQ-ed, and many of the sounds have a chorus and / or stereo delay & reverb applied (but nothing that would dramatically alter the original timbre of the synth like phasers, flangers, pitch shifters, etc). The wet / dry ratio is usually 20:80 (or 20% mix in other words), reaching 50:50 in a few patches (I used the simplest presets on a Lexicon MX). I wanted to make the sounds nice for the ear but I also wanted show the true sound of this synth without too much embellishment or experimentation.
Here's a short FX dry/wet comparison to give you an idea what the patches sound like without FX:"

"The D2 Groovebox is the first compact groove music workstation to benefit from Roland's D-Field Controller technology. This touch-sensitive pad makes it easy to program and modify patterns, sounds, effects and more simply by touching the surface
150 all-new patterns
Performance-oriented Groovebox (sequencer/sound module) with all-new interactive design
Easy operation using touch-sensitive D-Field with three distinct modes
SOUND makes playing patterns and sound effects easy by touching the D-Field
XY provides simultaneous control over two parameters (e.g. filter cutoff + resonance)
SPIN creates turntable-style effects by tracing the pad in a circular motion
600 Preset patches and 30 Preset drum kits with waveforms equivalent to the MC-505
150 patterns including new 2-Step and R&B styles, plus 240 RPS (Realtime Phrase Sequence) patterns
Separate Reverb, Delay and MFX sections with Groove-oriented algorithms
New Step Recording method using D-Field and 32 LEDs
Megamix function creates new patterns using parts from existing patterns
The D2 puts you in control of the music with its revolutionary D-Field Controller. The D-Field makes playing sounds, controlling patterns and creating effects as easy as rubbing your finger across the surface. Three modes are provided, each with four buttons used to call up various functions.
This mode allows you to play patterns and sound effects by touching the D-Field and includes the following function buttons:
RPS Play back Realtime Phrase Sequence patterns.
AD LIB Use the pad to play solos manually or via the arpeggiator.
VINYL EFFECT Call up scratching, backspin and other turntable sounds.
ASSIGN 1 Use the D-Field to select or mute patterns and preview Patches.
FILTER Control both cutoff and resonance with one finger.
MFX Use the D-Field to control one of the 25 onboard multi-effects (MFX)
X-FADER Crossfade between two Parts of the current pattern.
ASSIGN 2 Assign the D-Field between Bender, LFO and Envelope.
VINYL Control patterns like a turntable including forward, reverse and stop.
BPM Trace the pad forward or backward to vary the tempo.
SD ROLL Control the speed of snare drum rolls by tracing the pad.
ASSIGN 3 Assign the D-Field between Note Mute, Random Pitch and MFX.
The D2 includes 600 patches with waveforms inherited from the industry-standard MC-505 Groovebox. These dance-oriented sounds include ultra-phat bass and lead synths, screaming TB-303’s, dance piano and strings, plus 30 floor-pounding drum kits. 150 Preset patterns are included and have been programmed in the latest dance music styles such as 2-Step and drum-intensive R&B. Of course, there’s also plenty of house, techno, hip-hop and drum ‘n’ bass."

Roland Super JX / JX-10 with PG-800 Programmer

"JX-10 in perfect working order. Other than a scratch on the left side of the button panel (see photos), it’s in really good condition.
The PG-800 is in excellent condition. I would assume it was the box that protected it over the years but that’s in impressive shape too.
Note:
There’s a smoke smell but only on the PG-800’s case for some reason. It doesn’t seem to follow the PG-800 around or the box expect faintly on the inside.
Some of the original patches have been modified but the good ones have been left alone. Factory tones roughly 51 and onwards are the JX-8P’s factory presets which is pretty cool.
Includes:
JX-10
original power cable
PG-800 with case, 6 ft original cable and box"
